Finally, we we were granted some big news news in sports, so without any further ado, here's what we've rounded-up today.

It's that time of year again, when only thing to watch on the first Sunday of February is the Super Bowl. This year, Super Bowl LV will be very different than all the rest because with the COVID-19 pandemic still going on, Raymond James Stadium will not be fulled to capacity. However, having some people in the stands better than having no people in the stands, the game should be entertaining itself, and we all expect The Weeknd to kill tonight during halftime. Before the BIg Game, let's see the latest results and upcoming games and events in another new installment of Max Sports Rundown.

Our Main Story this week steps away from all the politics in our nation's capital and takes us all the way to Osaka, Japan, home of Universal Studios Japan and Super Nintendo World. Before we go any further, I want to announce that I'm going to do a video discussing the new land and you'll be able to see it on the FakeTV Box on YouTube. I first came across this story when I was doing some YouTube surfering, as usual, when I found that one YouTuber went to the soft opening of Super Nintendo World in Japan. That someone was the creator of Universal Parks News Today, sister channel of Walt Disney World News Today, he took a brief tour of the new land and recorded lot of cool stuff. From the scenery, to Yoshi's Adventure, to the Food and Restaurants, to the Shops and Merchandise, and finally to the Flagship Attraction of the land. Mario Kart: Koopa's Challenge looks cool when you see the concept art, but little does anyone that there actually two different experiences when riding with the required Augment Reality (AR) goggles and riding with out them. See what I mean while watching this fun and very colorful edition of the Web Choice playlist.
